who here 
's classic minis??? i do, they are the best eva!!! and what are peoples opinions on the new 'mini's'?
i think that they were released totally the wrong way, and that's what rubbed all classic mini owners up the wrong way!! BMW (not austin) released them as the "new and improved mini", when really they are a new style, but definately not improved.
what do you all think?? if you have a mini, tell us bout it and post a pic if you can.
My mate and b/f both have one, il try and get pics
p.s. uve gotta em, cos Mr Bean has one, and he's great

The gear box has a nice close ratio so you get a sporty quick gear change from standard.
But alas they are too expensive & at the end of the day they can never replace a retro classic that the old mini is.
After all they are a german made bmw not a British classic.
I wouldn't mind a mini cooper s works or the brabus mini cooper s:
.:Crispy:.
To be honest, if it's got wheels and an engine, I'm interested.
Then my parents bought a new mini which I drove sometimes, which was AMAZING to drive, really really amazing, but it had two crashes (neither of them our faults) and after that my parents sold it because it just wasn't the same after it had been so badly damaged and repaired so many times.
Now I don't have a car
The new Mini is lovely as a car in its own right, but it's not anywhere near as cool as the original Mini and they shouldn't try and pretend that it is.
